Just for fun: what's your Christmas movie score? I should probably (definitely) be painting the bathroom instead of typing this, but I'm not going to fight Hallmark this time. If you were in a Christmas movie, how would you rank?
Do you:
get a real Christmas tree +2
go to get said tree on foot with the expectation that Mr. Right will appear to carry it home +4
wear a suit to work -1
do woodworking +3
have handmade ornaments on your Christmas tree +2
order presents from Amazon -2
decorate your car like a reindeer +1
occasionally work nights and weekends -3
have a secret family cookie recipe +2
put Christmas garlands around each door frame in your home +3
start listening to Christmas music in October +1
answer work phone calls outside of working hours -2
have real poinsettias on every surface in your home +3
have poor communication skills, specifically with your future spouse +4

This post inspired by my brother in law, as it occurred to me that his recent woodworking skills made his value in a Christmas movie dramatically increase. In an unexpected twist of fate, he is married to the Queen of Christmas. Christmas magic never lies.
